George Clooney & Sandra Bullock: Venice Boating Buddies

Making the most of their time in Italy, Sandra Bullock and George Clooney were spotted taking water taxi rides right next to each other in Venice on Tuesday afternoon (August 27).

The Heat starlet brought her son Louis along for the jaunt while Clooney invited his pal Rande Gerber (aka Mr. Cindy Crawford) to share his boat.

George and Sandra are in the boot-shaped country to promote their new flick Gravity at the Venice Film Festival, which kicks off this week.

Of her experience making the movie with her longtime friend Clooney, Bullock noted, “This film was so hard that pranks had no place. There was never down time. How are you going to prank someone who”s hanging from a scaffold with 12 wires, rigged up all day So we had a truce at the very get-go because that just wasn”t the place to prank.
